This debate raged on in the Na'vi community as well.

I suspect that any character that looks approximately correct will work fine, except for circumstances where the text may be electronically translated or converted. -- -----Original Message----- From: SuStel <sustel@trimboli.name> Reply-to: tlhingan-hol@kli.org To: tlhingan-hol@lists.kli.org Subject: Re: [tlhIngan Hol] Klingon Word of the Day: luS Date: Fri, 24 May 2019 09:56:04 -0400 Okrand uses this symbol in his books for the glottal stop: ’ Let's assume for now that he was specific about the typeface choice. I seem to remember him telling some story about how the editors wanted to change some of his initial ’ to ‘, and on this vague recollection I take it as true that Okrand specifically wanted ’. (If he didn't choose the character specifically, then it certainly doesn't matter which character we choose.) Okrand does not use ' in his publications, only ’. So my question to you is, why is it okay to use '? Isn't ' also the wrong character to use?
